MarmotPreCip® Jacket Tall

I tried on many waterproof rain jackets before finding this one. I'm 6'4", and finding a jacket that's long enough in the waist and arms without adding extra width in the waistline is usually difficult. However, this jacket (size LT) fits great! It's also incredibly light and packs up well into a small ball. While completely waterproof, it sacrifices some breathability (to be expected). For me this is a very good purchase, and I recommend it to anyone looking specifically for a lightweight, completely waterproof rain jacket.

I ordered the medium tall (I'm 6'6", 175lbs and thin) and it fits great. I can still wear some layers under it. But this jacket is not waterproof. I would say it is only water resistant. If its sprinkling outside this jacket is great. If there is a quick short lasting torrential downpour this jacket is great. But anything in the prolonged wetness will saturate this jacket quickly. For being so expensive and claiming waterproof I really expected it to keep me dry. I guess you have to buy the really thick ugly raincoats to actually keep all the wetness off. I did my research before buying and read lots of reviews and only came across one other that said it was not waterproof but I bought it anyways because of all the other reviews saying that it was waterproof. It's not. Live and learn.

I got it as a gift and was disappointed. The material was too rough on the inside and I did not like how it was just so bland. Overall the style did not make up for the discomfort in wearing it.
